Content
The amount of information that must be transferred from books, patients, journals,
mentors, and so on into the brain of an aspiring emergency physician is overwhelming.
Many physicians create study plans, purchase books, fall behind schedule, and
readjust timelines in an endless process akin to yo-yo dieting. Whatever the means we
use to study while not actively caring for patients, inevitably we learn as our forebears
did – one patient at a time.

to the practice of emergency medicine. These pages contain heuristics on the general
approach to patient management, pearls on the care of children, tips on performing
common bedside procedures, and a litany of cases.

Working with a Partner
As described in Chapter 3, during the oral boards you will be taken through a series of
cases by an American Board of Emergency Medicine examiner. To mimic this process
as closely as possible, you should review the cases in this book with a partner. Pairing
with another emergency physician is ideal, as they will be familiar with the format
of the boards and the medical decision making in the cases, and they will have more
fun throwing curveballs at you to make the cases more interesting (or difficult)! If you
cannot find a colleague with a medical background to take you through the cases, a
friend, family, or significant other will do. The “examiner instructions” for each case
are written to help a nonphysician approach the case. It is quite likely that your family
and friends already know a lot of the jargon in this book. Like most physicians,
you have probably regaled them with enough stomach-turning stories over the dinner
table to make them experts. If you are fortunate enough to have a partner (examiner),
read through the introductory section and appendices and become familiar with the
format for the boards, but do not look at the images or cases. The examiner will take
you (the candidate, to use ABEM’s term) through the cases. You should read through…
